This morning Chris and Linda left about 7:30 AM to pick up Charlie and Kat at her aunt's house and drive to the airport. We had a nice visit and ate at a different restaurant every night. Yesterday it was the Japanese restaurant Gombei. Last night we all watched the three-hour finale of The Bachelorette on ABC to keep Linda company because she is a great fan. I had never heard of the show and will avoid watching any more like it. Today I am running the dishwasher and the washing machine.

Yesterday Chris and Linda came with me to watch Annie in Nealon Park while Julian to Beech with him to do the grocery shopping. Chris and Linda and Mimi and I went to Celia's, where the old Fontanna's used to be, for a Mexican-food dinner. Julian was supposed to bring Annie to my place on the way to the hospital fro Beech's surgery (to put new tubes in his ears) this morning, but at about 6:40 AM, while I was getting dressed to go down to the parking lot to get her while he was on his way to the hospitel, he called and said Vanessa felt well enough to watch her, so the let her sleep and I went back to beb.
